I expected this film to go into great detail about Eichmanns role in the Nazi Machine but unfortunalty felt that it fell a long way short in this respect and as this is the only facet to the film and of course knowing the outcome of the interigation I think this is a complete waste of time and effort for all those involved.
I suggest you give this a miss and just Google Eichman and read a few articles if you're at all intrested intrested.
Although I usually enjoy historical drama, this one was disappointing. Eichmann was too much in control, too comfortable, in his prison. What about that ridiculous scene where he makes love counting millions of dead Jews to get excited? Not even in a cartoon... And by the way, was WWII a war between Germans and Jews? That's the impression one gets, as if there was nobody else involved, or other motives for the war.
